The Action Network’s Matt Moore related on Twitter that he doesn’t “believe Marcus Smart winds up in a Gordon trade (IF it happens),” based on what he has heard about the deal in recent hours.

Moore was one of several insiders relaying news about trade negotiations between Boston and Orlando regarding a Gordon deal on Monday.
